Shaq has more all-star appearances than Lebron.

LOL

 

wake me up before you go go

 

had kerry been this good at his own convention in 2004, he would be president right now. too bad he was too "nice" then.

 

lol...anyone been watching larry king live these past few nights?
He has the republican take on the DNC all hour long and I'm cracking up hearing these hypocritical jokes spin round and round.
Larry is calls them out by asking follow up questions and they answer his questions with bs that has nothing to do with the questions being asked.

 

let's be real, both sides are like that. it's politics. most of these strategist (dems or reps) always dodge questions.

but we all need to know we can't have another republican administration. bush's approval rating is freakin' 27%. that's as low as i can remember. and there's a reason bush is not on primetime at the RNC.

 

I agree 100% but these guys (Rep strategist) are way out of touch with the real world and you can tell that even larry king is becoming irritated.
They had one guy the other night saying that he is not so sure he wants change and that he is happy with america as it is
He must be a part of the top elite group that loves the direction our economy has taken or he is a repo guy.

 

Power to the people...

 

Elección = election is spanish, way to ignore the context too.

 

So IROC is your post an example of what Obama calls taking pride in ignorance?


On Reports of an Inappropriate Flag in a Texas Obama Office
February 12, 2008

"This is a volunteer office that is not in any way controlled by the Obama campaign. We were disappointed to see this picture because it is both offensive to many Cuban-Americans -- and Americans of all backgrounds -- and because it does not reflect Senator Obama’s views. Barack Obama has been very clear in putting forward a Cuba policy that is based on one principle: freedom for the Cuban people." -- Obama Campaign

From Houston Fox News:

"The office featured in this video is funded by volunteers of the Barack Obama Campaign and is not an official headquarters for his campaign."

For those who missed it, John Kerry gave one of the best speeches of the convention so far (who would have thunk it).

13 minutes

Well it see it on this bbs. A lot of folks who don't make $250,000 per year, don't really have excellent health insurance (but luckily are young and in good health) and whose folks don't have estates worth more than $5 million and they are all for the GOP tax cuts as they identify with the wealthy. Another example of the $30,000 millionaire syndrome?

 

Sounds like you're wanting some..... change!

 

Maybe it's because I don't believe in high taxes, redistribution of wealth, have a good health care plan, and don't think socialized medicine works.

Is it possible I just think Obama and the Democrat platform is wrong? And that's why I don't support him?

 

Yes it is possible. Some people like the status quo and don't have a problem with what's happened the last 8 years. If that's your stance, fine. Others think taxes should be raised on the the wealthy & lowered for the working middle/lower classes and want health care for those who don't have it.

 

Yeah Kerry's speech was great. "Talk about being for it, before you were against it..." What a great line.

 

And I'll be cracking up next week when he has the democrats take on the RNC. That's when those hypocritical jokes spin round and round.

 

you also have informed us that global warming is a completely manufactured myth so I'm not that inclined to give much credence to your 'beliefs' as much other than just CTRL-V'ing crapaganda.
